HOUSTON – This holiday season, give the gift of healthy, glowing skin. Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Sherry Ingraham stopped by Houston Life with affordable, crowd-pleasing picks that work for a range of ages and skin concerns.
Gifts for radiant, youthful skin
For brighter, more rested eyes, try RoC Eye Repair Dark Circle Cream to help reduce discoloration and puffiness.
A lip volumizer adds hydration and holiday-ready plumpness, while a firming serum stick (retinol + antioxidants) and RoC Line Smoothing Night Serum Capsules deliver targeted anti-aging benefits without a complicated routine.
A facial roller/guasha set (beauty massage tool) is a relaxing, giftable extra that complements serums and creams.
Winter saviors and quick refreshers
Cold weather calls for heavy-duty moisture. Aquaphor Repairing Hand Masks and CeraVe Healing Ointment are go-to remedies for cracked, overworked skin. For sensitive or redness-prone skin, La Roche-Posay moisturizer and Thermal Spring Water provide gentle hydration and calming relief.
For late nights and holiday travel, keep a stash of hydrating or revitalizing under-eye masks for quick brightening and de-puffing.
Stocking stuffers for teens, men and serious skin-care fans
Keep teens on track with a simple bubble gel cleanser and lightweight moisturizer—gentle, easy steps to start a routine.
For blemishes, use acne patches or spot treatments. Dr. Ingraham recommends products from Neutrogena or JB Skrub.
Men who want no-fuss care will appreciate JB Skrub’s straightforward approach.
For someone who wants a luxury-level repair, consider Senté Dermal Repair Cream or SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Gel.
Another skincare trend worth gifting this holiday season - red light therapy masks. Dr. Ingraham recommends Dp Dermaceuticals LED Face Mask and HigherDOSE Red Light Face Mask.
Bonus: a Kitsch standard pillowcase helps reduce friction on skin and hair for better beauty sleep.
Whether you’re gifting a teen, a busy neighbor or a skincare enthusiast, Dr. Ingraham’s dermatologist-approved picks make healthy skin an easy present - and one that keeps giving.
